Runway Maintenance Strategy

We do the scheduling of maintenance on our runways together with many other parties and it is a complex process. Various interests are involved; from operations, engineering and our local environment. In working together, we seek an optimal balance between the impact on our local residents, the aviation sector and the technical feasibility of the work.

Together with various partners, we have defined how we carry out runway maintenance. This is described in detail in the Runway Maintenance Strategy and consists of several documents. In this summary, you can read the most important information.

Major maintenance in the coming years

According to the Runway Maintenance Strategy, one runway undergoes major maintenance every year. This is necessary to carry out large-scale work. We have drawn up a multi-year schedule for this:
